    Sick Chicken

    Thanks blarictchickens. I washed most of her backside off last nite, tomorrow I am off work and am going to give her a full soaking and blow dry. She was perkier this am. Gave her a scrambled egg and some meal worms for breakfast. Won't be home until late, hubby is keeping an eye on her. She...

    Sick Chicken

    I have a Rock, she has been acting strange lately. Not eating much, seems spaced out. I have looked her over, everything seems to check out ok. Put her in the "hospital" Sunday. She didn't eat much, but laid an egg. Started covering her so she wouldn't be inclined to try and lay. Have her on...

    Sick chick? Not sure

    That's awesome!! An acre sounds like a nice area for them to run around in. 31 is quite a flock! It sounds like you will be having daily Easter egg hunts once they all start to lay!! I haven't heard Mae sing her song yet, haven't been home when she has laid, maybe over the long weekend I will...

    Sick chick? Not sure

    Thanks for the info EggSighted!! I did the antibiotic a few weeks ago right after I had one die. Poop wasn't looking right, they were acting strange and not want to move much. They are all doing good now. Mae is the one that hasn't laid an egg in four days. (None of the others have started...

    Sick chick? Not sure

    Disappointed no one has responded to my post . . . still monitoring my chick. Gave her a tums, electrolytes and a spa bath last nite. Seemed happy this am. No messy butt. Felt around her pretty good when giving her the spa (soak in warm Epsom salt bath) could not find anything that would...

    My hen is dying

    I am new to chickens, however, I do know that the heat can take quiet a toll. I put ice cubes and a frozen water bottle in their water every day and in addition I have a shallow tray that I put bricks and ice in. They can stand in it to keep cool. I lost one to the heat. Just found her dead in...

    Help!!! Jelly eggs and Water belly??

    One of mine just started laying her first eggs last week. She laid 5 in 5 days. Two days ago, no egg. Saw them all eating something "clear" in the run. Wasn't sure what to think of it. Checked out "Mae". She looked fine, was acting fine. Could not feel an egg inside her. Just figured it was a...

    Sick chick? Not sure

    Ok, so I am going to try this, not quite sure how all of this works. I joined in April. Had 6 little chicks at the time. Lost one due to heat, I think. Put them all on antibiotics to be sure. They have all been doing just fine, all Barred Rock. One of them just started laying her first eggs last...
